The photographer is incredibly patient and professional, yet makes the session feel fun and natural -- no stiff poses, no "say cheese" nonsense. The photos themselves are amazing. Every shot captures genuine smiles and personality, whether it's a family session, a beach backdrop, or just everyday moments. You leave with images that look effortless but feel full of character. From start to finish, the experience is smooth and enjoyable. The staff make you feel comfortable, guide you through poses naturally, and ensure the end result is something you'll actually want to display. Highly recommend for anyone wanting professional photos without the awkwardness of a traditional studio.

I cannot emphasize enough the photographic skill and creativity of Richel Lavette. I recently…read morehosted a once-in-a-lifetime fraternity "Chartering" event that included both an early afternoon initiation, as well as a 190 person celebratory banquet including dinner, numerous guest speakers and awards to be presented. She handled both events professionally and with a great eye for framing, lighting and spontaneity. Richel Lavette is the consummate professional photographer. Her skill set includes image set up, proper lighting, images that tell a story, taking charge of large group photos with incredible tact, and looking for the small details that make a good image even better. Ms. Lavette can see what others do not. Her experience, and speed in finding the right images tell an unparalleled story. She requires initial input from the client, and once she understands the priorities, Richel can work independently with little to no supervision. But, beyond her obvious skills as a photographer, she has a strong work ethic and is always ready to capture a spontaneous moment that some photographers simply do not see. Her people skills are outstanding, and is always encouraging people to smile, and have fun while being photographed. Her greatest skills? The ability to listen, interpret, and deliver spectacular results. Lavette Photo Studios is an excellent photo studio, and I give Richel, and her studio my highest recommendations. She earned it.

It is $2100.00 MORE for her to give you the disk with your family images so you can make prints or $225.00 for EACH high resolution image. READ ALL THE FINE PRINT: Maria OWNS the photos they are NEVER yours you have to buy them from her!! At outrageous prices!!! Here is Our experience: Maria Scott Photography uses Bay Photo online and has a 300% mark up we wanted a photo on metal Maria charges $980.00 for this one split photo!!!! Bay photo price online is $220.00 ( FYI: you do not need to be a photographer to order from Bay Photo) That is a $760.00 PROFIT on just one! Because I called her out she lowered price to $406.04 but then proceeded to raise the price on the others. She quoted 75.00 each but when invoiced I was charged 84.00 Each. Again you can buy these yourself online at Bay Photo for 22.00 each. But Maria will not release your pictures to you! It's insane! I have found out since then that there are many amazing photographers in Clearwater Florida who do photos at Honeymoon Island and their price of $375.00-450.00 INCLUDES ALL YOUR HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGES!!!!! This was a VERY Disappointing experience Not only the 300% mark up Maria Scott Photography charges to print only 4 photos. The fact that she holds your family memories hostage so you have no other choice then to pay these astronomical prices!!!!!

I chose Rachel as my photographer because the pictures on Instagram looked beautiful especially…read moreloved the hammock photo- that specific photo didn't work out for me though lol. For the price of over a thousands dollars I wish I was able to get all the pictures that were taken but the package I chose only allowed 20 photos. Again, I made that choice to use her as a photographer even though I knew the prices. On the day of my session, only Rachel was present - no assistant . I am not sure if this is a typical thing or not but I've read that her assistant has been present during other photo shoots. The pictures after edits came out beautiful and I was happy with the majority of the pictures. One picture my thigh was extremely photoshopped to seem smaller but did appreciate all the bumps on my thighs being smoothed out. I don't regret doing the photo shoot because I have beautiful pictures that captured my pregnancy journey and this is going to be my one and only child. Prior to the session, Rachel made sure to let me know when I needed a break... At first I thought I could push through but I needed multiple breaks and Rachel has snacks and water handy. My mom and the father were included in the shoots and Rachel helped with poses for each pic. I think that Rachel picked up that the hammock shoot was not all coming together as what I had in mind so she did offer me an alternative look to use which came out great. She ensured that different poses were completed during the session. Rachel even took a picture of my mom solo which she didn't have to and it was a beautiful picture. Rachel has a closet of beautiful dresses and materials to choose from.

Updating now that I've also done newborn photos with Rachel…read more There are two reasons I'm taking away a star. I'm still a fan of Rachel (hence the Yay, I'm a Fan rating), but I also could see going with another photographer. First, she isn't super responsive in communication. There were a couple of times I had to both email and text her to get a response. One time she said she thought she emailed me back and didn't (these things happen), another time she had gotten into a car wreck earlier in the week, another she had surgery...I understand that these are all valid excuses, but they really started to add up. I'm type A and I like hearing back in a prompt manner so this took away from the experience a bit. Second, she doesn't have many props for her newborn photoshoot. I saw other people's photos where their babies are surrounded by things (like flowers.) Hers were mainly the baby and like a bucket (which is still super cute, but I also love when the babies are surround by things which add more depth to the photos.) One area where she really excels are her composite photos. She does a couple where the baby is superimposed on a backdrop. They are super unique and I love my Yoshi and bunny photos. I would choose this over props ten times over. I wish we had more family pictures, but that is a personal preference. We got tons of cute baby photos but not that many family ones. It seemed to be kind of tacked on the end. Overall, I love my pictures. I would definitely go with her again for newborn and maternity, but for just every day family pictures where there isn't as much creativity, I think my OCD nature would rather choose someone else.
